a Firefox switch site by 4 political activists

We all know there are a few sites encouraging people to switch their browser to Firefox, such as SpreadFirefox.com and our own Switch Guide.

There is a site by four "full-time political activists" called Explorer Destroyer.

They told you how to get the "bounty" for referring each person switching to Firefox. (The "bounty" is paid by Google's "Get Firefox with Google Toolbar" AdSense programme.) And provides a scripts that will get you site listed if you have 50$ or less traffic using Internet Explorer.

They also provide a script that can be used by extremists... from suggesting, encouraging to forcing IE users to switch to Firefox.

Enjoy.

If you ask me, this is a bit extreme. Put a small Firefox button on your page, at most a banner, but don't go forcing it.
